This haunted house marks a return for the Ghostbusters franchise to Halloween Horror Nights, having first appeared in 2019.
Creators got the script for the film as they were developing this haunted house, which appears in both Orlando and Hollywood. They then later saw a rough cut before the finished movie was released.
The Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire house is located in sound stage 23 in Universal Orlando, also home to Monstruos: The Monsters Of Latin America.
Because two houses are staged in the same space, they were unable to traditionally lower temperatures - however, the air conditioning, timed blasts of cold air and suggestion of ice makes you feel much chillier! The creative team replicated film-used techniques to achieve the ice spike effects.
